[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #3486] def_ai_xxx_data() callers to pass ai type.
URL: http://gna.org/patch/?3486 Summary: def_ai_xxx_data() callers to pass ai type. Project: Freeciv Submitted by: cazfi Submitted on: Wed 08 Aug 2012 05:21:24 PM EEST Category: ai Priority: 5 - Normal Status: Ready For Test Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Planned Release: 2.5.0 ___ Details: Instead of def_ai_xxx_data() to lookup for default ai type itself, it takes ai type as parameter. This might seems like step backward (every caller needing to make identical lookup operation instead of it being centralized), but it moves the bad lookup upwards so one can search codebase for the lookups to get rid of. Matthias wanted to implement luaai, that would fallback to default ai code. I think threaded AI could also in first phase reuse at least some of the default ai code. Similar situation can come up with further ai type projects. Such default ai reuse is currently impossible because these default ai type lookups. If one calls default ai functions, they access data in default ai context, not in that of calling ai type. ___ File Attachments: --- Date: Wed 08 Aug 2012 05:21:24 PM EEST Name: DefAiCallerType.patch.bz2 Size: 9kB By: cazfi http://gna.org/patch/download.php?file_id=16346 ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/patch/?3486 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

It bothers me that the distribution is not self-contained; I'd rather that the history was available to anyone who has the tarball, for years to come, without dependence on external entities like Wikia remaining viable. This is mainly an extra chore for the release manager, and well, that's me for now :) My plan is to continue to *prepare* the NEWS file on wiki, and leave a copy there, but to scrape it at release time using a script similar to the generate_FAQ.pl scraper and put that in the NEWS file in svn / tarball. Possibly I'll only do this for major releases; not sure. NEWS between minor releases will at most live in that branch's tarballs, not forever, I think. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/patch/?3488 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

[Freeciv-Dev] [bug #20038] Transform to water
URL: http://gna.org/bugs/?20038 Summary: Transform to water Project: Freeciv Submitted by: jtn Submitted on: Wed Aug 8 22:44:09 2012 Category: None Severity: 3 - Normal Priority: 5 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Release: Discussion Lock: Any Operating System: None Planned Release: 2.5.0 ___ Details: Currently for land-to-water transformations, as with others, you have to specify a specific transform_result terrain. This means you can't arrange that expanding a lake gets you more lake whereas receding a coastline gets you more ocean. Prior to patch #3478 this simply led to discontinuities in water type. Now it means that any attempt to expand a lake turns the whole thing to Ocean, via flooding, even if it's still inland. What you really want is some way of expressing in the ruleset that you want to transform to an appropriate kind of water, with the exact transformation depending on the surroundings. Details to work out: * How to express this in ruleset? ** transform_result=Water (potentially clashing with existing terrain name in modpacks)? ** just trigger the selection behaviour on any land-to-water transformation, ignoring the precise transform_to terrain? (Other special behaviour is already triggered, such as checking for sufficient surrounding water tiles.) * What to do if multiple water types surround tile? ** Obviously in cases where flooding happens, then the flooding type wins. ** Use most_shallow_ocean()? ** Perhaps we want to define a partial order on ocean terrains showing which wins over and/or floods which, replacing the current fixed one of !TER_FRESHWATER TER_FRESHWATER. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?20038 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

[Freeciv-Dev] [bug #20038] Transform to water
Follow-up Comment #1, bug #20038 (project freeciv): Simplest solution, possibly something we implement at least for the time we wait your model, would be to 1) Fix flooding to happen also *towards* the transformed tile if it's freshwater and there's adjacent ocean tile 2) Make transform_to in all supplied rulesets (and document for custom ones) Lake - If one then transforms next to lake - (s)he gets lake - If one transforms next to ocean - (s)he gets lake that is then immediately flooded with ocean from adjacent tile. Temporary lake should not be user-visible at any point. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?20038 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

[Freeciv-Dev] Metaserver change tomorrow night
We're looking to change the metaserver from being hosted on cazfi.net to the new server that's now running freeciv.org. We currently plan this for tomorrow night. I've wound down the DNS TTL so that the DNS changes should propagate quickly, but if you're running a server over the transition, it will likely continue to connect to the old metaserver, whereas clients will start using the new one, and not see your server. You should be able to fix this without restarting your server by doing: /metaconnection down /metaconnection up Sorry for the lack of notice -- I only just realised it wouldn't seamlessly transition.

I wrote: We're looking to change the metaserver from being hosted on cazfi.net to the new server that's now running freeciv.org. We currently plan this for tomorrow night. Just to be clear: the hostname to use (meta.freeciv.org) isn't changing, only what that name resolves to. So there's no need to change client and server configuration, beyond what I already mentioned to get servers to notice the change. ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #2, patch #3488 (project freeciv): to gather comments (if any) YAY! It bothers me that the distribution is not self-contained That's why I were against removing them from under version control in the first place. Also, latest version in wiki is just one version - in theory any documentation under version control should be in sync with the code. About NEWS of minor version never making it to TRUNK: What about your policy of making 2.b.0 NEWS relative to 2.a.x, not 2.a.0? What happens to NEWS between 2.a.0 and 2.a.x?

[Freeciv-Dev] [patch #2963] Use ferryboat system for trade
Update of patch #2963 (project freeciv): Status: Ready For Test = In Progress ___ Follow-up Comment #9: - When considering value of building caravan, consider ruleset set traderoute type trade % instead of blindly assuming that intercontinental trade is better than continental. - Removed wrapper function aiferry_boats_available() that did nothing but called aiferry_avail_boats() Call latter directly instead - Minor style corrections Still needs to decide what to do with dai_is_unit_tired_waiting_boat(). It's counting time from caravan's original birth. Old units could not be reassigned to a mission, as they would give up immediately. I wonder why there's if (unit_transported(punit) || is_ocean_tile(unit_tile(punit))) when checking if unit needs a boat. Is the latter part meant to check if unit can itself move on ocean tiles? (if it's not transported as first checked, then to exist in ocean tile it must be able to live there itself - ignoring possibility of ocean cities, native bases, and native roads) In any case this cannot be right.
